Hey, Trekkies: Google has treated us all to a really fun, interactive doodle to celebrate the 46th anniversary of the network premiere of Star Trek! From today until tomorrow — September 8, the actual air date in 1966 — you will get to set your cursors to “stun” and maybe mess with a Redshirt (hint: the worried-looking one shaped like an “e”) when you visit Google’s main page and start clicking your way into a miniature episode featuring characters from the original series. (The hair on the O-Kirk is glorious, I tell you.) StarTrek.com has an interview with the doodle’s creator (and Trekkie), Ryan Germick. Live long and prosper, Star Trek!
